Zuccherino F1 is a hybrid cocktail tomato of the so-called mini San Marzano type. Its fruits are small, oval and red, each weighing 15–20 g. The packet contains 5 seeds.
Early to ripen and very productive
According to the breeder, Zuccherino F1 ripens very early, so you can start picking early in the season. It is also highly productive, setting several hundred fruits per plant.
Raise it from seedlings and tie it to a stake
Tomatoes are best raised from seedlings. Zuccherino F1 is an indeterminate variety: its shoots keep growing throughout the season, so the plant needs support. Tie it to a stake or a taut string, and keep tying it in as it grows. Regularly remove the side shoots that appear where the leaves meet the stem, and feed the plants regularly.
Sweet bites for salads and sandwiches
The fruits taste sweet and flavourful. Add them to salads and sandwiches, or enjoy them on their own. According to the breeder, their sugar content is exceptionally high, with a Brix value (a measure of sugar content) of 11.
